Refreshing Clauses in a Template
The Refresh Clauses functionality allows you to keep your contract template up to date. If the contract template contains clauses, and one clause has been changed but not published, this functionality can update the clause in the contract template in context. The clauses having any of the following changes will appear in the Refresh Clauses list:
- Change in clause attribute
- Addition, deletion, or modification in clause content
- Change in the smart, read-only or merge fields
Prerequisite
The clause is edited and checked-in.
Restriction
Clauses with repeat tables or repeat sections cannot be refreshed.
To refresh clauses in a template
-
In the Contracts pane, click the Home button (
) and select Templates.
-
In the Templates pane, go to Work tab, click the Dropdown button (
) and select Refresh Clauses.
If the template contains clauses with no changes, you will see a message stating "No clauses are found for refresh".
If the template contains clauses with changes, you will receive a message showing which clauses must be refreshed.
Behavior and Limitations
- When you Refresh Clauses, the default space inside a clause between two lines is removed. If you need additional space between the two lines, you must add space manually.
- When you Refresh Clauses, one line of space is added after the clause.
